Massive Attack have laid into Pete Tong as a result of the BBC veteran playing their iconic track, ‘Unfinished Sympathy', at his Ibiza Classics show.

In 2011, Tong issued a restraining order against Massive Attack’s former singer, Shara Nelson. Nelson had claimed she’d married Tong and had his child, whereas Tong strongly denied both claims.
